OTTAWA. Ont. April GA special from
Victoria, British Columbia, gives an ac-
count OF a terrible shipwreck, accom-
panied BY the loss OF thirty-three lives,
which took place on the coast OF Oregon.
about thirty miles north OF Cape Flattery.
during the early part OF this month. The
information was first brought IN by four
Kyugenot Indians, who arrived at Vic
toria yesterday morning, having occupied
ten days in making the overland journey
from the scene OF the wreck.
For some time past considerable anxiety
has been felt regarding the schooner
Active, having on board Ave Swcdes and
twenty-eight Indians, and which is long
overdue.
The Active was engaged in general
coast trade, and had . valuable cargo of
assorted merchandise on board, which,
however, was not insured. The schooner
appears to have been caught in storm
which ragged during the early part OF the
month, and 10 have been dashed on shore,
where she speedily went to pieces, all
hands undoubtedly perishing.
A far a. known, no one witnessed the
disaster, the Indians having their atten.
ton FIRST attracted BY the large quantity
Of wreckagc washed ashore, including
hunks, Indian mats, bedding, etc, which
was washed up, but nothing actually
bearing the name OF the YES
sci. The general description how
